ABSTRACT = "The concepts of automatic differentiation, see [Rall1981ADT], and of parallel
processing are applied to problems in optimisation. A discussion is presented of how the advent of
the Ada programming language on parallel processing machines may transform the solution of practical
optimisation problems, see [Dixon1987TUo]. The author also discusses the difficulties associated
with calculating the derivative values if automatic differentiation is not used.",
